56-VOLT LITHIUM-ION POLE SAW — PS1000/PS1000-FC 33
WARNING: A dull or improperly sharpened chain can cause excessive motor
speed during cutting, which may result in severe motor damage.
WARNING:
Improper chain sharpening increases the potential of kickback.
WARNING:
Failure to replace or repair a damaged chain can cause serious
injury.
Top Plate Sharpening Angles
(Fig. 25)
◾
CORRECT 30°- This optimal angle
can be obtained only when the
specied les and proper setting
are used. File holders are marked
with guide marks to align the le
properly to produce the correct top
plate angle.
◾
LESS THAN 30°- The tooth is too dull for cutting.
◾
MORE THAN 30°- The edge of the cutting tooth is feathered and dulls quickly.
Side Plate Angle (Fig. 26)
◾
CORRECT 65° - The optimal angle
can be produced automatically if
the correct diameter le is used in
the le holder.
◾
HOOK - “Grabs” and dulls quickly.
Increases potential of KICKBACK.
Results from using a le with a
diameter that is too small, or a le
held too low.
◾
BACKWARD SLOPE - Needs too much feed pressure, causes excessive wear to
bar and chain. Results from using a le with a diameter too large, or a le held
too high.
